Welcome From Major Pierre Benoist
Greetings,
As a Major with thirty years of service, I understand that excellent communication and interpersonal skills are essential to successful command and community service. Throughout my career I have worked as an officer and/or a supervisor within in District One, District 7, District 8, Vice/Narcotics, the Intelligence Division, the Internal Affairs Division, the Warrant & Fugitive Division as well as with the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA). After being promoted to a Captain, I was fortunate enough to serve as the Commander of District 4. All of these assignments have prepared me for my current position as the Commander of the Central Patrol Division since being promoted to Major.
The Central Patrol Division encompasses the most diverse areas in the city with regards to activities and events that occur within its borders. While having a large area of residential neighborhoods, including several public housing complexes, it is also home to the biggest entertainment areas within the city. At any given time, hundreds of thousands of people descend on these areas. This flux requires us to be prepared and adaptable to handle everything from traffic control to calls for service to ensure all citizens enjoy their experience in the city. I look forward to working through these challenges with community members and stakeholders, as cooperation is the key to ensuring a safe and productive city.
Thank you,
Major Pierre Benoist
Commander, Central Patrol

My name is Christian Stamper, District Four Captain with the SLMPD. I can’t express enough how proud I am to serve as the Captain of District Four. Our Fourth Police District is very important to the overall success of the City of St. Louis, and I take that responsibility very seriously.

I have been with the SLMPD for 25 years. Before my promotion to Captain, I served as the Lieutenant/Commander of the Drug Enforcement and Intervention Unit, The Mobile Reserve Unit, and as a Watch Commander in District Six.
